Beckham Named Captain In England Win


David Beckham was handed the captains armband by coach Fabio Capello Sunday, as England defeated Trinidad and Tobago by a score of 3-0 in an international friendly. Beckham was surprised by the Italian managers decision after it had been widely rumoured that Gareth Barry would be given the armband. Beckham had resigned as his countries captain after the World Cup in 2006, but has sensationally made his return both to the national team and now the captaincy in 2008. Capello looks to be attempting to decide who is best suited to lead England as captain over the next World Cup qualifying campaign, as he has passed the honour around to a different person in each of his four matches in charge so far.
